Thanks Koume: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/koume/paper-dolls

I wasn’t as clever to strand as I thought I was, so I had to adjust the cats, the long red strands still pucker the fabric though …

Nevertheless, I love stranded colorwork, so I just have to practise …

But … the corrugated ribs around the arms are uncomfortably tight, so I gave it to my daughter to use as a tunic. I’m sure it’ll keep her warm and trendy for years :) For that reason I omitted the neck shaping, so she won’t have a problem turning it right getting dressed.

As cwc I never managed to I-cord cast on without getting big holes (I also never figured out what I did wrong), so I provisionally casted on and did a light I-cord bind off with 2 sts instead of 3.

Nice top – I want one too ♡
